So if I fly on a *A carrier on a booking class that is designated 100%, does it mean that if I fly 1,500 miles (or is it KM?) I get 1,500 qualifying as well well as redeemable points?

Also, how easy or difficult is it to claim award tickets online, without having to spend time on the phone?

Does any fresh activity on a dormant Eurobonus account automatically extend the life of the points?

Unless there like with Lufthansa European flights are specified earning buckets, then it is based on the miles of the flight times the earning percentage.

Points are valid for 5 years after the year you earned them in. The expire at the end of your qualifying year. There is no way to extend the life of the points.
